No, I just thought more bang for less margin, since I am assuming that you would use the underlying stock you own to meet the margin requirement (should still be 1:1, equity share:call option).

If you sell out-of-the-money strikes, you have to use more stock to hedge more options (to reach the same dollar value received, because the out-of-the-money is less valuable).

In the end, I guess its a matter of taste for risk.
